Kumho tires are great quality, nothing short on quality vs value, compare to all other brands, except for the length of the history of the brand, the country it was made, etc. Don't get me wrong, I love Michelins, but hey you lucky boys in US tire rack you can get the 19" Michelins for less than $200 each, while we have to pay double here in China. This F30 is my daily and occasionally light track duites, I don't need very sticky rubber. When i m hungry for some serious speed and controls? I have other sports cars in my garage to feed me....Kumho to Michelins? like Samsung smart phones vs iPhone? We pay the price of a Porsche 911 in US to get only a BMW F30 328 here in china.

The rear spoiler matches the lines of the car pretty well (IMO), it is different from the other existing design out there, it gives your F30 a bit more edgy attitude. Check out some other pix here in this threads.

The Carbon roof is made of REAL carbon fiber under vacuum process, it is thin and consistent and smooth, so that it can covers your entire roof, if i don't tell you where to look for, you probably think it is a real replacement of carbon roof panel.

The rear diffuser and front lip fit on the regular 328 or 335 bumper, non M-tech bumpers. Different angle of pix attached.

All these are just released in China, it will be available soon in USA. For those who PM me, I will reply later for the details.

Wheel offset, sorry, not to be disclosed here.....and with this setup, they do clear the fender wells.

The wheels are made with original center cap size, the original BMW caps can be used, but i think the blue and white logo is out of place with these nice wheels and keeping the same color caps would make the car much cleaner IMO.

i pmed you...really like the spoiler...im drooling ahhaha

Why is it difficult to modify? I think you just need to know the right shop/right person.

Not too hard IMO

jrob · 12-10-2012, 02:54 PM

All those cars look amazing! Well done! Just needs a tint IMHO and I am personally not a fan of CF front lips because I like them painted so it more obviously extends the length of the bumper, but just a personal preference. Are those 245's on a 10-inch rear? What offsets are you running?

buildbright · 12-10-2012, 07:55 PM

Well as long as you are happy with the car.

yes, they are 245/35/19 on 10-inch rear. You can paint the carbon pieces if you want, will look more elegant while the carbon pattern will make the car look more aggressive IMO.

The windows are tinted (not the windshield yet), but I personally prefer lighter tint.

onehungevo · 12-11-2012, 09:45 AM

I would like to see a painted front lip that matches the car.

Andy0323 · 12-12-2012, 02:53 AM

Nice ride. I haven't seen Aspec wheels before, and they look awfully similar to Work Brombachers. Are the Aspecs multipiece?

A SPEC wheel is the collaboration of ASPEC & AUTOart (Yep, the famous model car manufacturer), offering high quality modular construction with custom fitment for virtually any applications.

My 328 featuring their VY model (like the WORK Brombacher, based on the the classic Y-spoke BBS design), with step lip (front mount) and offering a very high price to performance ratio.

I love how popular its become to hate on heavily (exterior) modified cars...every single one of you would turn your head if you saw this car fly past, looks amazing. Agressive wheels/suspensions, quality carbon fiber, just a mean looking F30. the whole "to each their own" is stupid, heavily modifed cars either look great because of quality parts or stupid because of cheap parts+shortcuts...this one looks great. Period.

newbmwuser · 12-12-2012, 06:49 PM

people say "if you have nothing nice to say, say nothing at all"..

in this case, ill just say nothing at all

I saw that lip in Chinese websites... search for JC STYLE F30 Front lip.... trying to find out how to order one but can only be ordered wholesale right now online. If we garner enough interest then we may be able to get an order. The M SPort looks nice but Id like my F30 to stand out a little and the cost involved doesnt help right now. As for the 3D design lip, its just too expensive (same price as an M Sport front Conversion Kit from the distributors ive investigated.

The A SPEC products as you seen on this demo F30 is available for sale now in the US, the actual pieces will be in stock and to be shipped in the US very soon.
